Tour de France Tour de France 2020 | Stage 10 (Ile d’Oleron / Le Chateau d’Oleron) – Île de Ré / Saint-Martin-de-Ré, 168,5 km

[DJ Sprtsch]

Looking forward to see the heli-footage today and the scenery.
Race action would be a huge unexpected bonus.

So is this likely to be our 2nd stage without a break? It seems no break could very easily happen with this stage at this point.

Total Direct Energie is from Vendée, so I guess for their home stage they need to be in front, no matter what

 

[Jagartrott]

I'll try and provoke the weather gods: "I'm only tuning in the last 5 km, nothing at all will happen on this stage beside the sprint."

Ready for week 2!

[Lequack]

So far about half the teams have confirmed no Corona cases, still waiting for official announceement

 

[tobydawq]

It seems like we're only waiting for B&B Hotels, Bahrain, Deceuninck, Lotto, Israel, Mitchelton and Sunweb.

 

[Lequack]

News is at least 1 staff member from Deceuninck is being retested
Also an ambulance appeared at the DQ hotel

They're on the way to the start line so hopefully it's just an isolated incident or a misplaced sample or something.

 

[SafeBet]

Press release in 30 minutes.

 

[Breezy1985]

So are all teams at the sign in?

 

[Lequack]

Quickstep say they're all good.

 

[argyllflyer]

Helecopter shots of Fort Boyard no doubt in the can already!

Just need a Carlton Kirby impression of Lesley Grantham doing "Jacques, the door!" to round it all off!

 

[Lequack]

This from DQS: ‘An error was made in the laboratory with the sample that the individual gave yesterday, meaning they were taken for restesting this morning. The result of this second test has been returned as negative and we will continue to race as normal.’

 

[F_Cance]

As always QS blaming it on others.

 

[happytramp]

Well, there you go, that was probably the most exciting thing that will happen for the next 5 hours.

 

[Gigs_98]

That was the most exciting part of the tour so far

 

[Lequack]

Tam Sunweb announces that everyone will be at the start. Landa's team still to confirm.

Searching Twitter for "#TdF2020" and "Covid" terms

Plus, there is a thread on reddit:

[SafeBet]

Time to start searching for the #Landismo hashtag, I guess.

 

[richwallone]

It looks like everybody is there, even the last bus of Bahrain-Mclaren arrived... Pheeew, we passed the first week of testing without any casualties

 

[kingjr]

Lotto Soudal still missing, no? Though they were supposed to be the first team to sign in.

Nevermind:
